  • NAACP Sues Trump, Giuliani and Two White Nationalist Groups for Failed Jan. 6 Coup

    The NAACP, Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, and civil rights law firm Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll figure if Republicans won’t let their ovaries hang and impeach the voice of the insurrection, then they will just have to sue his ass and his supporters’ untanned asses.

  • Lindsey Graham Threatens to Impeach Kamala Harris as Valentine’s Gift to His Boo

    Former President Donald Trump may just be your average run-of-the-mill racist without any power and a belly that hangs over his belt, but that hasn’t stopped South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) from kissing his ass. During a recent appearance on Fox News, aka Trump’s OnlyFans, Graham threatened to put Harris through an impeachment trial…

  • The Joy of Living Past Your Problems

    I thought I would be dead by 27. I don’t know why I had this number picked out but I remember an old head rapping to me about life the way that old heads do, and at one point, he said something about when he was 27 and I remember thinking, “I don’t got me…

  • Republicans Try to Normalize Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Crazy Talk by Calling for Ilhan Omar’s Ouster

    Instead of dealing with the woman who believes that Jewish lasers have caused forest fires in their own backyard, Republicans would rather attack Rep. Ilhan Omar because she’s a woman of color who runs with “The Squad.” You know, “The Squad”—the literal badass women of color who don’t take shit from Republicans and old-ass Democrats…

  • Joe Biden and the Lie of the Great Stimulus Check

    Have you heard the story of President Joe Biden and the Great Stimulus Check? It goes like this: when President-elect Joe Biden wanted to push for two Georgia senators facing a difficult runoff election that would ensure that Biden would be backed by a Democrat-controlled Senate, he told America that they’d be getting $2,000 stimulus…

  • I’m Going to Need Rep. Nancy Mace to Keep Auntie Maxine’s Good Name Out of Her Mouth

    There are certain things Black people don’t play with: Beyoncè Jesus And Auntie Maxine. For some reason, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) thought it was a good idea to mention Auntie Maxine Waters’ name in vain. Yes, on this day of our lord Bridgerton, Mace found it to be the day that she wanted to blow…

  • You Know It’s Bad When Mitch McConnell Thinks Marjorie Taylor Greene Is Telling ‘Loony Lies’

    Fanny Neck Mitch McConnell sat there for four years as the Senate majority leader and never once condemned, commented, complained, castrated–or any other C-word–anything coming out of former President Donald Trump’s anus-shaped mouth. He didn’t say a damn thing when Trump was suggesting that scientists find a way to bring the light inside the body…

    Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez knew during the Capitol insurrection that she was a target. She knew this because ever since she took office, white supremacists, both in and outside of Congress, couldn’t keep her name out of their mouths.

  • Biden Needs to Keep That Same Energy When He Meets With Republicans and Their COVID Relief Counter Offer

    They were six years in power. And during that time, then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Republican senators didn’t just walk all over Democrats, they danced in our end zone and laughed at our tears. So I’m going to need newly minted President Biden to keep that same energy during talks with the 10 Republican…

  • Georgia Republicans Are So Afraid of Stacey Abrams That They Created a Group Called ‘Stop Stacey’

    There comes a time in every superhero’s life when the bad guys are forced to ban together to try and bring down the powerful one. Such is life for Stacey Abrams. Imagine being so afraid of the great and mythical Abrams, that you stole the Georgia governorship from her the first time she ran, and…
